I am about to attempt a rebuild of a 200 gt Johnson, (just me and my big Johnson), and was wondering if anyone has a Seloc manual for 1993 kicking around that is collecting dust and needs a home?
Actually you should "waste" the money and go in purposely so you learn how to get back in your boat with it on and inflated. I take a dip in my float suit every summer just for that reason.
The sad reality is that most of us will be initially shocked and exclaim That is ridiculous!!! and then go about their day.As, lets face it, "After all, it does not affect me".
The hydrostatic work on pressure, if you are more than ~4" below water it will trigger and automatically inflate. Not often I wholeheartedly agree with Old Ironmaker, but I do on this.
